Four years ago, Ragako Villiage

The people of the village begin waking up and working around the village as a small gush of wind blows of a mans hat as a woman retrieves it for him, before turning around and sees a gas fill up the entire village

Woman: W-What...

The woman would be engulfed by the gas as on the outskirts of the village soldiers use gas tanks to fill up the village as someone watch as everyone in the village collapses to the ground frozen

Soldier: All ready, War Chief!

Zeke nods as he screams as everyone in the village transforms into a Titan

--------------------------------------------

Present

Zeke: It's called a "gas weapon." The gas contains some of my spinal fluid. Breathing just a slight amount makes Subjects of Ymir freeze up. They can't control their bodies and lose consciousness. On my command, I send the Power of the Titans to the coordinate via Paths. That's why the people of that village obeyed my orders.

Levi: It's not "that" village. It's Ragako. Don't forget the name of the village you slaughtered, you beared shit.

Zeke: Well, I don't want to do it. But if I hadn't, and they found out I was sided with Eldia, I couldn't have brought hope to this island. You know, I told you all this when I landed on the island. Why do you keep asking?

Levi: You don't show a shred of guilt in you and it shows. You may or may not want to save Eldia but those lives meant nothing to you.

Zeke: You can't have been popular. You think you know everyone's feelings.

Levi: I do know. And I was popular enough.

Zeke: Well, ain't that so great? So? When will Eren and I begin the test?

Levi: It's not up to me. We're waiting for HQ.

Zeke: They may thing we have time to spare, but we don't.

Levi: I'm with you there.

Scout: Captain Levi!

The Scout rushes to Levi and whispers to his ear

Levi: What? Are you serious?

In Nicolo's building the Braus family look around amaze as Gabi and Falco look around nervous

Artur: What's wrong, Mia? Got the jitters?

Gabi: Um, no...

Kids: You're so nervous, Mia! I know! What a total bumpkin!

Gabi: N-No!

Everyone laughs as Gabi pulls Kaya close

Gabi: Kaya! Does a Marleyan captive really work here?

Kaya: It's true, so get a grip. Soldiers use this place, too.

Falco: It'll be good to know another Marleyan.

The Braus family walk upstairs as Artur, Kaya and Lisa walk in first

Nicolo: Mr. Braus! Thank you for coming!

Artur: Thanks a bunch for the invite!

The rest of the kids walk in as Nicolo smiles

Nicolo: Oh my. You sure brought a crowd.

Artur: Since it's on the house, I brought the whole gang. Sorry.

Nicolo: It's fine. Welcome, everyone. This way, please.
